Fastest clear times

[EnStorEn]

I have played for about 14 hours and my fastest clear so far is 22 minutes. How has it been going for the rest of the community? I realize I am a rookie so would be fun to hear just how fast you can do it ^^

If you want speedrunning times you can check here: https://www.speedrun.com/hades

I would say an average run is about 15-20 min. If you try and hurry up it should land at 10-15m. Keep in mind that this games runs are seeded and you can re-run the same one over and over for a better time (which is what speedrunners generally do).

...So I shouldn't be taking more than half an hour per run?

You can take as much time as you want unless you run Forced Overtime heat modifier that puts you on a 9/7m per biome timer. Once you play with that enough you will get used to playing fast.

It's fine. My runs are above 30 minutes most of the time. I like to play it safe. It's better to clear the run than clear the rooms quickly and die in the process.

Then again, the runs he is talking about are seeded, meaning that they know exactly what rooms lie ahead.
